Welcome to NeXT -- er, Apple.  ;)

The NeXT folks that now run much of the OS development wanted to ditch the
resource fork altogether.  But after much feedback from developers they
acquiesced enough to allow the resource for during an unspecified

Same for creator codes, the long-term future of which is still largely
unknown at this time.
